Ok.

A more precise question is: on the client side, whether PHP or anything
else, can you take advantage of the information available and provide some
usable somehow "dedicated" interface that would make it easy to access the
available informations? What would help for that purpose?

The current proposal is that the advices would be tables in a schema, so
just by browsing the tables one can access advices. However, the tables
contain the advice data, but explanations about what these advices mean
are in another table.

So maybe there is an interface job that would be welcome to show both the
explanations and the data of interest for these explanations? Just like
in psql "\*" shortcuts query about pg_tables to show informations.
